Was this work being done on Intel hardware?

I'm just wondering if this might be some issue with the cache on Intel
mutli core processors (i.e. the cache is constantly being
invalidated).

This could be tested by running the equivalent C code on Intel kit and
running the Java code on non Intel kit.
